Question 1

I want to connect this to my monitor, it is samsung ultrawide monitor model:c49hg90. how can i make this work?

Accepted Answer

First off, nice monitor! You cannot directly connect these speakers to that monitor. You need an amplifier, and monitors do not come with amps. This monitor does come with a headphone output jack. If your amplifier/receiver has a 1/8 input jack, then you can run a 1/8 cable from the monitor to the amp/receiver, and then wire up the speakers to the amp/receiver. Like others have noted you will need a fairly powerful amp to truly get the most out of these speakers./

Question 2

In a small to medium size room, is the sprout 100 powerful enough to drive them loud?

Accepted Answer

Small room yes.  Medium to large room, not really.  I have the Sprout 100 and these sound good through them but you really have to crank the volume up to get them to enjoyable levels.  I have the Elac UniFi UB5's which aren't the most sensitive speakers but I think it's just the size difference between the 2 that makes the Sprout 100 able to create a larger, more room filling sound with the Elacs than with the Miccas.  The Micca's are a neat little speaker.  They can take a lot of power and almost need a lot of power to be pushed through them to really open up.  When they do open up they sound great.  But at distance, at lower volumes, they can actually sound kind of thin.    In my living room, as a soundbar replacement it was good, but that room is 14x24.  The Sprout 100 was able to push them but it didn't seem ideal.  Now, I have them in a small bedroom, 10'x12', using them near field on my desk and they sound amazing being pushed by a Topping PA3.  The PA3 incidentally has just barely enough juice to push these near field at enjoyable but not extremely loud volumes.  The RB42's are amazing little speakers, particularly at the price point but they need a LOT of amp to sound their best.

Question 3

How much does one speaker weigh?

Accepted Answer

They are pretty hefty at a little over about 7lbs/3kg each. So, keep that in mind when considering where you plan to place/mount them. 😉

Question 4

What speaker stands would you recommend for these speakers?

Accepted Answer

I purchased Mount It speaker stands for these with separate foam wedges beneath them to angle the sound up.
